Doors Open Toronto Tour: Toronto's Sports Icons

You can learn a lot about a city through the stories of the athletes it has celebrated and cheered on. Toronto’s past is filled with dramatic tales of sports heroes who have brought us championships and heartbreak – and shaped our city in the process. In this walk, you will trace that history through downtown Toronto and the waterfront, visiting long-lost stadiums, exploring Edwardian victory parades and uncovering stories of forgotten glories. Discover inspiring tales about icons – from Tom Longboat to Terry Fox, and Babe Ruth to Joe Carter – and learn about the impact their athletic exploits have had on the city’s identity.
